Interesting. A few years ago I wanted an extension cord for my welder. I priced the wire and connectors and quickly found I could buy a heavy extension cord at Menards, cut the ends off and put new ones on for much less than I could buy the bare wire.
Don’t know how it prices out now, but this is what I got. https://www.menards.com/main/electrical/electrical-cords-cord-management/extension-cords/cerrowire-reg-soow-portable-power-cable/283-3803a/p-1444439088643-c-6410.htm?tid=8180317239044349655&ipos=1 Unfortunately only 25ft though.
